Shaking, dibilitating nausea, Complete lack or drive to eat anything, low drops in heart rate wear my heart feels weird as it beats ( in the 60s), Severe diareah, headachesand I am still expierencing neck swelling, pain and back ache.

I am also diabetic and take glucovance 3times a day andJanuvia once a day. It's keeping my insulin levels pretty steady. I tried the higher doseage of lyrica and it raised my blood sugar. But, this seems like a good combination for me. I do take a tylox at night to get to sleep and when the pain is bad in the morning I have a hydrocodone I can take. It helps with the pain but, also makes me feel edgy and nervous a few hours later. .. So, I try not to take it. Good luck!
